What did Max do yesterday?
Podcasts, there are millions of them.
Some might say too many.
I have one already.
I don't have any, because there are enough.
Politics, business, sport, you name it, there's a podcast about it, and they all ask the big questions and cover the hot topics of the day.
But nobody is covering the most important topic of all. Why is that? Are they scared? Too afraid of being censored by the man? No.
What cultural references from the 90s and 00s are mentioned?
Possibly, but not us. We're here to ask the only question that matters. We try and say it at the same time, Max. What did you do yesterday? What did you do yesterday? What did you do yesterday? That's it. All we're interested in is what the guests got up to yesterday. Nothing more.
Day before yesterday, Max? Nope. The greatest and most interesting day of your life?
Unless it was yesterday, we don't want to know about it. I'm Max Rushton. And I'm David O'Doherty. Welcome to What Did You Do Yesterday? Welcome to this episode of Midweek Mayhem, series one of Midweek Mayhem, because there was no series one of Midweek Mayhem in the original series one of What Did You Do Yesterday? David O'Doherty is here as an important clarification.
Do you think we should do prequels of Midweek Mayhem, where we go back and try and remember what we were doing on the various yesterdays?
Yeah, Mrs. Rushton had an idea, which is you could do nostalgia episodes where you ask the guest, what is your dream day to have recorded What Did You Do Yesterday when something actually happened yesterday?
I mean, it does raise an interesting thought, which is with say your photos, all of my photos since 2008 are all on my phone and I can go back to pretty much any day in the last 17 years. I'm not
going to remember everything that happened but i'll be like oh that and that you know the past isn't as much of a mystery as it used to be so we could do let's look at your photos from the 18th of december 2013 well i'll tell you why i would remember that because it's my birthday i know well i didn't know but it was a 365 guess and i've got it are you the sort of guy who remembers birthdays no i remember teddy sherringham's birthday is april the 30th I'll tell you what I had. I had someone bought me a Cliff Richard calendar of 1993, to be ironic. And then I just kept it on my wall for years and put everyone's birthdays in. And it was really incredibly useful, even if the days didn't tally. June 1993, Cliff Richard is sitting cross-legged,
And the photo is from above and he is on a blue tennis court and he is sort of raising his hands to the Lord, I think. Well, yeah. That is the most memorable. If anyone else still has the 1993 Richard calendar, let me know the other months.
I remember those calendars because he was a man not afraid to take his shirt off into his 70s. Not at all. Yeah, I know. And he didn't have the little, you know, the way sometimes dudes, even Cliff, develop little boobies. Yeah. Little kind of squidgy boobies like eggs.
They're more like sort of long strings, aren't they? It will happen to all of us, apart from Iggy Pop. There's a sort of long... Yeah. Spaghetti is too much.
How do listener correspondences influence the show?
Yeah. Sort of a linguine.
That's what you'll get. Yeah. They're like Joanne McNally's eggs. That's what they're like. Just a feedback. Hang on. Because you've raised an interesting point there. Iggy Pop's in good nick. Okay. As is Anthony Kiedis. Kiedis from the Red Hot Chili Peppers.
Yes, his physio did my knee. Anthony Kiedis' physio.
Yeah, physio'd my knee. Max, so they're both in good nick, I think partly because they perform shirtless on stage. Do you think we should podcast shirtless?
No, but I think for the live shows, we should insist on it. For us, the guests, and the entire audience. Will that mean we'll resell more or fewer tickets if that was the case? Some feedback. We got a lot of feedback about Phil Wang's personal training. On Instagram, a lot of people below the little clip that was put out of Phil Wang talking about his personal trainer not being able to count. MJT Bell says, I'm a personal trainer and it's true. pts can't count and then hooper said i'm also a personal trainer and can confirm that i can't count either and then instafran 94 said i once had a personal trainer who didn't know how many seconds were in a minute
